Overview of Havens Living Frankfurt Bockenheim
Havens Living Frankfurt Bockenheim is a modern managed residence located at 60486 Frankfurt am Main, in the Bockenheim district. It operates under a fully serviced model, with monthly rent covering utilities and access to communal amenities. As of data from 2026-07, it holds a Google rating of 4.9 from 79 reviews, reflecting strong overall resident satisfaction. The property features a courtyard, allows pets, and operates on a minimum lease of 8 months. Monthly prices range from €1,329 to €2,304 — indicative; confirm with the operator. Although the platform lists this property under a Darmstadt category, its physical address is in Frankfurt.
Who Suits This Residence
Relocating professionals and students. The inclusive billing structure simplifies the move-in process for anyone new to Frankfurt. You pay one monthly amount and do not need to set up separate utility accounts. The lease term of 8 months suits a typical semester, internship, or initial work assignment.
Commuters. One resident highlighted using the property as a commuter base for 7 months, noting it is “very easy and convenient” when moving to Frankfurt. The Bockenheim location connects well to Frankfurt city centre and the wider Rhine-Main region, including the Darmstadt area via regional trains.
Pet owners. The property explicitly allows pets, which is a significant advantage in a market where pet-friendly rentals are limited. This tag alone makes the residence suitable for tenants who travel with animals.
Residents who value community features. The common area receives positive mentions in reviews as a space to connect with other residents in similar situations. For individuals moving to a new city alone, this social element can be valuable.
Those who prefer modern finishes. All three quoted reviews comment on the building being new, clean, and well-maintained. The modern condition is a consistent theme.
Who Might Want to Look Elsewhere
Budget-focused students. The city’s from-price for student accommodation is €468 per month (indicative; confirm with the operator). Havens Living’s starting price of €1,329 is roughly 2.8 times that baseline. While the higher price includes bills, it remains a premium option. One resident directly states “it is on the higher end price wise” and advises “keep that in mind if you’re looking to reduce costs.”
Long-term stable renters. Managed residences sometimes have less flexibility for long-term renewals beyond 1–2 years. If you intend to stay in the same unit for multiple years, a traditional rental might offer more stable pricing and less turnover.
Those needing direct proximity to a specific campus. The property is in Frankfurt Bockenheim, not in Darmstadt city proper. If your daily schedule requires being walkable or on a short bus ride to Darmstadt’s central university area, factor in the 30–40 minute regional train connection.
Resident Reviews: What Residents Say
Three Google reviews provide direct user feedback. Quotes are reproduced verbatim from the source data:

“I stayed here as a commuter for 7 months. As a place to stay when you move to FFM it’s very easy and convenient. It is on the higher end price wise but they do try to be transparent with their pricing. But keep that in mind if you’re looking to reduce costs. The house managers are very nice people. It can be a little h” — Debbie L (4.0)

Common themes across the reviews: modern and clean condition, supportive management team, ease of moving in, and higher pricing tier. No review mentions dissatisfaction with maintenance or noise.
Price Positioning
The monthly price of €1,329–€2,304 (indicative; confirm with the operator) places this residence in a premium segment compared to the city’s reference from-price of €468. The gap primarily reflects the all-inclusive nature of the rent, the modern building condition, and the managed services (on-site team, maintenance, common area upkeep).
For context, the city’s property count in this category is 18 units, suggesting a relatively small inventory. Supply constraints can justify higher pricing. The deposit amount is not specified in the available data and should be confirmed during inquiry.
Residents should evaluate whether the trade-off — higher monthly cost in exchange for convenience and certainty — fits their financial situation. The review from Debbie L specifically notes the operator “try to be transparent with their pricing,” which can help in comparing total cost against cheaper base-rent options where utilities and setup fees are separate.
Room Types Guidance
Available unit types are described as “1b” and “apartment.”
- 1b: Likely a one-bedroom apartment with a separate bedroom and living space. Suitable for single occupants or couples who want a clear division between sleeping and living areas.
- Apartment: This could refer to a studio or a larger layout. Without detailed floor plans, we can assume it is a self-contained unit.
Both types include bills in the monthly rent. The property is pet-friendly, so pet owners should confirm any specific terms (such as additional deposits or restrictions on animal size) directly. Minimum lease is 8 months.
Given the limited number of unit types, prospective residents should ask for floor plans and square footage to determine which layout best suits their needs. The reviews indicate the apartments are “in excellent condition” and “modern.”
Booking Timing for 2026/2027
The property’s high rating (4.9) and limited inventory suggest demand regularly exceeds supply. For a planned move-in in 2026 or 2027, starting the search 4–6 months in advance is a practical approach.
The minimum lease of 8 months means the property is less suited for short-term stays (e.g., 3-month summer internships) unless the operator agrees to a shorter term. If you need exactly 8 months or more, it aligns well.
Given that the city listing area has only 18 properties, and Havens Living is one of the highest-rated in the segment, early inquiry is warranted. The property appears to attract residents who stay for 6–7 months (as indicated by reviews), so turnover may be somewhat frequent but still competitive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the residence serve students from the university in Darmstadt?
The property is in Frankfurt Bockenheim. The university area in Darmstadt is roughly 30–40 minutes away by regional train. It works for commuters who do not mind the travel time, but it is not a campus-adjacent option. One reviewer described using it as a commuter base.
Q: What exactly is included in the monthly rent?
The “bills_included” tag indicates that utilities such as electricity, water, heating, and likely internet are covered by the monthly payment. The exact scope (e.g., whether internet is included, or what the electricity cap is) should be clarified with the operator. The price is indicative and subject to confirmation.
Q: How long is the typical notice period or extension process?
The available data states a minimum lease of 8 months, but does not specify notice periods. For 2026/2027 stays, confirm whether the lease automatically converts to a monthly rolling contract after the initial term, or whether a fixed end date is required. This is important for students whose academic schedule may vary.
